insulin treatment in Type 2 diabetes - Part 2

Insulin Type


Manufactured insulin can be either synthetic (human) or animal in origin, and falls into five main categories


  • rapid-acting
  • short-acting
  • intermediate acting (also called isophane insulin)
  • fixed mixtures (of rapid - or short-acting and intermediate-acting insulin)
  • long-acting



Indications for insulin treatment

Strong indications for insulin therapy include:

  • symptoms of hyperglycaemia such as polyuria, thirst, 
    recurrent fungal infections (especially genital thrush) or bacterial infections (especially urine infections
  • pregnancy or planning pregnancy
  • oral hypoglycaemic treatments not tolerated/ contra-indicated
  • weight loss without dieting in someone of low or normal weight.
Possible indications for insulin therapy include:
  •  unsatisfactory glycaemic control, even with the maximum tolerated dose of oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHAs) (HbA1c higher than 7 per cent, self blood glucose monitoring results higher than 7 mmols/litre before meals or 9 mmols/litre two hours after meals) 
  • personal preference
  • painful neuropathy
  • foot ulceration and infection.

  1. The new EP Pure Wet is a masterclass in experimental baselines and echoey, breathy vocals all underpinned by varying funk and R&B-based rhythms.
    Compassion also arises out of a sense of vulnerability and shared humanity'the realization that we are all connected to everyone and everything at all times, that we are not isolated or separate. It is a very capable digital audio editor, that has multiple options for remixing and refining the various sounds you can create.

  2. In the four tournaments since his first of the season, he.
    If you don’t have much skill in programming, but still think that creating and
    developing games is the most suitable for you, there
    are special courses that will give you training in graphic designing, game development,
    and computer animation. It is recommended that the golfers select
    those putters with which the golfers feel good and works well with
    their gaming pattern.

  3. This is a small selection of great music I listen to, written
    from my own perspective as a fan and a user, with the aim of inspiring others to listen
    too. At a bargain 100 bolivianos for 4 hours, they have enough power to get 2 gringo-sized riders up the local hills.
    Quicker to produce and available in lower costs, they often feature a lot
    of complex designs.

  5. The new EP Pure Wet is a masterclass in experimental baselines and echoey, breathy vocals
    all underpinned by varying funk and R&B-based rhythms. Palma has a range of
    top-notch clubs, and Tito’s is one of the most popular.

    We are literally not the same person we were a minute ago, let alone a day, a month or a year
    ago.

  6. Try simple games and check how your internet connection is
    and then move on play more games. It should come as no surprise that i - Tunes is loaded full of pirate apps
    for i - Phone, i - Pod Touch, and i - Pad. Are you a Kansas City Chiefs
    or Pittsburgh Steelers fan.
